I'm a professional musician living in NYC. Guitar is my primary instrument, though I also play piano. I write my own music, which is a mixture of jazz, avant-garde, Brazilian music, blues, and classical. Besides music, I love food, both eating it and cooking it. I like to hike, too, and am always open to new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals who can recommend things to do and places to eat, and maybe hang out if they have time! And of course there's the added benefit of having a place to sleep =)
